在显示装置中,栅极开启电压输出的下降沿变化过快,其会影响显示面板内部的基准电压,影响的程度与单位时间内电压的变化成正相关。因此显示装置中电路架构的设计中会通过印制电路板端的设计对栅极的输出进行削角,即将33V下降至-7V的变化时间拉长,以减小对基准电压影响,进行削角后的栅极输出波形。
由于电容耦合效应的影响,TFT(Thin Film Transistor,主动开关)打开与关闭时,会影响到数据(Data)信号电压的稳定,进而影响画面品质,因此需 要对TFT的栅极开启电压VGH进行削角处理,以降低TFT关闭时栅极开启电压VGH与栅极关闭电压VGL之间的电压差,减小对数据信号电压的影响。例如采用电阻接地放电的方法来达到削角的目的,但是此削角结构的部分组件设置于非显示区印制电路板上,其散热面积较小,容易使得印制电路板的温度上升,且削角结构还需占用部分印制电路板,不利于显示装置的集成化。

在附图中,为了清晰起见,夸大了层、膜、面板、区域等的厚度。在附图中,为了理解和便于描述,夸大了一些层和区域的厚度。将理解的是,当例如层、膜、区域或基底的组件被称作“在”另一组件“上”时,所述组件可以直接在所述另一组件上,或者也可以存在中间组件。
为了说明本申请所述的技术方案,以下结合具体附图及实施例进行详细说明。
图1为范例性的显示装置,请参考图1,一种范例性的显示装置100,包括:显示面板140,具有显示区141和非显示区142;系统主板(图未示),所述系统主板将R/G/B压缩信号、控制信号及电源通过线材与印制电路板(Printed Circuit Board,PCB)110上的连接器111相连接,数据经过印制电路板110上的时序控制器(Timing Controller,TCON)(图未示)处理后,再通过源极驱动芯片120(Source-Chip on Film,S-COF)和栅极驱动芯片130(Gate-Chip on Film,G-COF)与显示面板140连接,从而使得显示面板140获得所需的电源、信号。在显示装置100的运行中,栅极开启电压输出的下降沿变化过快(可例如由33V下降至-7V),其会影响面板内部的基准电压,且影响的程度与单位时间内电压的变化量成正相关。
图2a为范例性的削角电路示意图,图2b为范例性的削角波形示意图。请同时参考图2a和图2b,一种范例性的削角结构101,包括:集成控制芯片102(Integrated Circuit,IC),及削角电阻103。所述削角电阻103一端耦接所述集成控制芯片102,另一端接地GND。通过所述集成控制芯片102产生栅极开启电压VGH,在所述栅极开启电压经过所述削角电阻103之后,形成削角 △V(其如图2b所示),以此缓解栅极开启电压下降过快,并减小电压变化对基准电压的影响。但是,此削角结构的部分组件设置于显示面板的非显示区,其散热面积较大,容易使得显示面板或显示装置的温度上升。另一方面,削角结构还需占用部分印制电路板,不利于显示装置的集成化。
图3为本申请一实施例的显示装置模块图,请参考图3,在本申请的一实施例中,一种显示装置200,包括:显示面板,具有显示区和非显示区;控制电路210,具有开启电压;缓冲电路220,设置于所述非显示区,并耦接所述控制电路210;栅极驱动电路230,设置于所述非显示区,并耦接所述缓冲电路220;像素模块240,设置于所述显示区,并耦接所述栅极驱动电路230;其中,所述开启电压通过所述缓冲电路220,并利用所述缓冲电路的缓冲作用,使所述开启电压形成削角,并通过所述栅极驱动电路导通至所述像素模块。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述开启电压为方波电压。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述缓冲电路220包括阵列设置的多个像素单元,所述多个像素单元之间的连接方式为串联。
在本申请的一实施例中,利用所述像素单元的阻抗作用,减缓所述开启电压的上升沿和下降沿,形成削角。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述缓冲电路220包括阵列设置的多个电容和多个电阻,所述多个电容和所述多个电阻之间的连接方式为串联或并联或其二者的结合。
在本申请的一实施例中,利用所述电容和所述电阻,减缓所述开启电压的上升沿和下降沿,形成削角。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述控制电路通过导线连接至所述多个像素单元中远离栅极驱动电路的一端。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述控制电路通过导线连接至所述多个像素单元的中端,在设计需求下,可适当调整连接点与栅极驱动电路之间的像素单元的数量。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述多个像素单元为设置于非显示区的非显示用的像素单元。
图4为本申请一实施例的驱动电路波形图。请同时参考图3和图4,栅极初始电压在所述缓冲电路的作用下,调整成削角的开启电压。所述开启电压导通至栅极驱动电路,由于栅极驱动电路的输出电压是基于所述开启电压,因此,由栅极驱动电路输出至显示面板的输出电压的上升沿和下降沿亦被减缓。图4中例示的输出电压为第一输出电压,第二输出电压,第三输出电压,但非以此限制只有三个输出电压,此依据设计人员的需求而定。同理而言,图4的削角后的开启电压波形仅为例示,并非以此限制其波形的形状及削角程度,其波形依据缓冲电路中像素单元或电容或电阻的数量及参数变化而有所调动。
图5为本申请一实施例的显示装置结构图。请同时参考图3至图5,在本申请的一实施例中,一种显示装置300,包括:显示面板140,具有显示区141和非显示区142;印制电路板110,与所述显示面板140相连,所述印制电路板具有一电源芯片112;多个非显示用的像素单元242,设置于所述显示面板的非显示区142,并通过导线,一端与印制电路板110的电源芯片112相连接,另一端与显示面板的栅极驱动芯片130相连接;多个显示用的像素单元241,设置于所述显示面板的显示区141,用于呈现显示画面。其中,印制电路板110和电源芯片112可等效为控制电路,多个像素单元242可等效为缓冲电路。所述开启电压通过多个像素单元242,并利用像素单元242的缓冲作用,使所述开启电压的上升沿和下降沿减缓,形成削角。而后,通过所述栅极驱动芯片 130输出多个输出电压至显示区的像素单元241。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述电源芯片112通过导线连接至所述多个非显示用的像素单元242中远离栅极驱动芯片130的一端。此可以充分发挥非显示用的像素单元242的减缓作用。所述电源芯片112亦可以连接至所述多个非显示用的像素单元242的中端,在设计需求下,适当调整连接点与栅极驱动芯片130之间的像素单元242的数量。
在本申请的一实施例中,所述多个像素单元242为串联设置,开启电压在通过该些像素单元242之后,形成削角后的开启电压,经由栅极驱动芯片130,导通至显示用的像素单元241。
